Abstract:Two dimensionally spatially resolved structural measurements are reported for cellular phenomena in lean laminar premixed hydrogen-air tubular flames. Laser-induced Raman scattering and chemiluminescence imaging are combined to investigate low Lewis number lean hydrogen-air flames. The strong effect of thermal-diffusive imbalance is observed in radial profiles interpolated through the centers of reaction and extinction zones. In the flame cell, the equivalence ratio is ~80% higher than the inlet mixture, resulting in a peak flame temperature of 1600 K that is 550 K above the adiabatic flame temperature of the inlet mixture (1055 K). In the adjacent extinction zone, the temperatures are ~900 K lower than the peak flame temperature and the equivalence ratio is similar to the inlet mixture. Despite doubling the global stretch rate from 200 s?1 to 400 s?1, the enhancement of local equivalence ratio and peak temperature in the flame cell remain similar. This enhancement seems dependent on the local cellular flame curvature, that is similar between both cases. With strong preferential diffusion effects, cellular flames offer unique validation data to improve the accuracy of current molecular transport modeling techniques.
